Calling all dog lovers....

[Johnboy]

Myself and Mrs Jb are heading off to the US for a couple of weeks from September 29th... Unfortunately we weren't aware that the schools are on holiday around this time and consequently every dog kennel inside a 40 mile radius of Sneck is fully booked...

We have an elderly black lab, Shadow - who is just the most laid back, unexciteable, loving and loveable pooch I've ever known - he just adores the entire human race.... The only time he has been known to bark is when asked if he wants food...!!

Can any of you lot help..? Maybe someone knows of someone who is getting over the loss of a dog, and who might be intersted in "fostering" for a couple of weeks... or if anyone knows of any kennel owners who might be able to squeeze him in.

We can be contacted on 01463 240455 or PM me....

He IS completely adorable Johnboy, hope you find somewhere happy for him to stay while you're away.

cute dog .... looks a little peeved though ... probably the empty (and scrupulously clean) food bowl

my own little pooch ..... a Black Lab / Newfoundland cross

Gotta sneaky suspicion this thread is going to turn into a "post a pic of your pooch here" thread....

Feck me - its true - owners really do look like their dogs.

[Johnboy]

Spoken by a fairly typical rottweiler owner...!!

There are quite a few dogs down here but I'm not going to take any pictures of them... :symbol_exclaim01: :001:

[CaleyJulz]

There is a boarding kennels place near Ardersier have you tried there ??? cant mind the name of it

[Johnboy]

Thanks CCC, I think we've tried them all...(yellow pages)  There were a couple with answerphones on where we left messages, but haven't heard back from them.....

Seem to recall IHE spending the night with a couple of dogs in my house one night after a night out! :023:

Hope you get it sorted Jb, he'd have been welcome here for a couple of weeks, just too far to send him on the bus that's the only problem...

He'd like it wanderin around the forests round here, lots for him to take a look at...

Canada Bob.

[Johnboy]

Thanks all the same, Bob...

That's two sensible posts on this thread now....

Guess I'm just gonna have to give him a big dunt on the head and take him down to the canal....

Ah well - it was worth a try.....  :019:

[Johnboy]

My thanks to all the dog owners/lovers who responded to our plea for help re looking after Shadow for a couple of weeks.... We did find someone who very kindly offered to look after him....  :003:

It never ceases to amaze me the things you can help for on this site....  :014:

[Connie.Orr]

Good news jb - now you can relax and enjoy your holiday knowing Shadow's ok.

We accept no responsibility for any of the things we have helped to facilitate ..... I know of two weddings, several relationships, many hangovers and a few other things where this site has been part of the circumstances ....... but if we help you win the lottery, please remember us  :023:
